Jim Sciutto Thoroughly Dismantles Ron Johnson’s Conspiracy Theories in Scathing Fact-Check: ‘That’s a Lie’

‘In fact, three lies’

EXCERPT:

SCIUTTO: "A handful of Johnson's Republican colleagues are calling out his lies. Illinois Congressman Adam Kinzinger tweeted, 'it's disgraceful for a sitting senator to spread disinformation so blatantly. It's a disservice to the people he serves to continue lying to them like this.' One more sad fact is that the big lie about January 6th is now the third in a series of damaging lies spread by Trump and his defenders. They say the election was stolen. That's a lie. They say the pandemic was exaggerated. That's a lie. As the deaths of half a million Americans now demonstrate so sadly. And now, Senator Johnson and others are spreading one more lie, and once again, sadly, many Americans believe it."
